**Thank you. That is so huge. I am so honored by that. I don't know what to say. Just huge. Thank you. I not saying it well, but mebbe you know what I am trying to say.I know that realising it was huge for me. So I can understand that hearing it is huge for you.
As an aside, I must admit that I’ve had trouble adjusting to your new name. Not because there’s anything wrong with the name you picked, but rather because I feel threatened by environmental changes. I think the name change threatens my inner landscape rather than an external environment.
I remember one time my T and I were talking about feeling threatened by changes to my environment and the very next session I turned up to find that all the furniture in the waiting room had been moved around. Very coincidental timing! The changes really freaked me out, but it was good in a way. My T knew I’d be freaked before I even got there, so he was real ready to talk through it and it helped that we had also just been talking about it the session beforehand.
Anyway, I think I’m getting used to your new name now. And I think that it was a really smart idea to change it. It’s actually like an affirmation that you will be reminded of pretty often. Very good idea to put it in place now when you are in need of extra encouragement.
Yes, you will survive!
